Stripe Atlas companies: if you’re applying to YC for this batch, we’ll review your application and a Stripe employee with relevant experience will give you advice. Check your inbox for the email “Apply to Y Combinator” for instructions (or you can email atlas@stripe.com and ask).
If you are not a Stripe Atlas company, you’ve got a few weeks to incorporate with us and we’d be happy to help.
If you aren’t a Stripe user but would like a review anyway, if you can figure out my email address (hint: I have a standing invitation on my blog), you could certainly just ask me for a review in my free time, and I generally manage to find enough free time for 5~10 reviews.
If you’re curious how to write a more successful YC application, we collaborated on a guide to pitching with YC: stripe.com/atlas/guides/p…

A lot of the advice I give ends up being rewrites of advice in there.
By far the most common: “Do you have qualitative or quantitative evidence that at least some people love this?” and “Can we be maximally clear on what *precisely* this thing is and what *precisely* users get from using it?”
